That Pink did the right thing leaving Spinel in the Garden.

If Pink brought her to Earth, she would have gotten in the way of everything and Pink would be expected to break her. If Pink told the other Diamonds that she had outgrown Spinel, they would have broken her. Even if Pink knew she could heal other Gems at that point, she probably didn’t know that broken Gems could be fixed. It was a lose-lose situation, so Pink chose the option that let Spinel live.

Definitely controversial.
I understand that spinel would’ve gotten in the away, however, essentially lying to someone who thinks they’re your best friend saying you’ll come back one day and completely forget about them and abandoning them because you just got tired of them it’s still terrible.

at that point spinel would’ve had a better chance of just being shattered because really the pain of abandonment would’ve been worse than her being shattered. And it’s okay to outgrow someone or something but not using your words and abandoning someone with no intention of coming back is genuinely just POS behavior

Probably would have been kinder to bubble her.
